The appellant appealed the removal of seven horses from her property by Animal Welfare Services and disputed the associated statements of account.
The horses were removed after the appellant failed to comply with multiple compliance orders regarding inadequate shelter, hoof care, and veterinary treatment for horses suffering from heaves and Cushing's disease.
The Animal Care Review Board found that the horses were in ongoing distress and that the removal was warranted and conducted properly under the Provincial Animal Welfare Services Act, 2019.
The appeal was dismissed, the removal order was upheld, and the statements of account were confirmed.
